Every year, the various forces send out their requirements and eligible applicants apply.
Each year is different except for some things that remain constant. I urge you to take every recruitment process individually as blanket questions like this depend on the year and the requirements for that year.
Cheers.
For now, let’s focus on information from the Nigeria Army DSSC that is the ongoing exercise.
